Ants, ants, ants!
OK. Here is the flora and fauna report from The Hermitage. Deer spotted heading towards the road this week. The biggest live beetle I have ever seen came down my chimney. It was like the Santa Claus of beetles. It was brownish yellow, half dead and not very pretty. I didn't covet it. I let it go. Spiders? Check. Orb web, wolf spiders, tiny ones that resemble black widows, but aren't. Squirrels and bunnies at the bird feeder. Blue Jays, Ruby throated hummingbirds, goldfinches, cardinals, cow birds, crows, Blue Herons in Portsmouth, Small black tadpoles, who were almost completely dry until I prayed for rain, tufted titmice, sparrows, black capped chickadees, red bellied woodpecker, frogs (heard but not seen this week), Annual cicadas, (the periodic cicadas are all dead, well the adults are), flying ants in swarms by the Ohio in Portsmouth. A gold fish in the Ohio river. Cockroaches, gnats, musca domestica, various culex, melanogaster, vespidae, water striders, bumblebees, even a couple of honeybees, which is a good sign. Groundhog! (Ever watch "How to Succeed in Business?") A couple of undetermined downy or ladder backed woodpeckers, robins, evidence of moles, crane flies but not as many as earlier in the summer, lightning bugs, chipmunk, horses, tiny ants, huge ants, aphids, treehoppers, biting flies I felt but didn't see, poison ivy, grass, ferns, boat tailed grackels, starlings, mourning doves, some bird with a blue head and a cardinal like bill. sowbugs, bean beetles, and many many more.
Myspace wants me to fornicate if it will make them a dime.
Empty Bed Tonight?
No Strings, No Commitment, No Games Find A Girl Now - Free To Americans
This is the kind of ad Myspace gets paid to run on "MY" space. I have deleted all links to the web site, of course, so don't bother clicking. My bed will NOT be empty tonight. It will be full of me. My bed is empty now, because I am not laying in it. But that's not a problem.
Tom is not my friend. And if he has a girlfriend, she just loves him for his money. Trust me. I've seen him.
I'm thinking about dumping myspace, and to that end, I'm going to copy blogs over here and delete them there.
